Last night I saw American Idol on TV, and finally David Cook became the American Idol 2008! From both finalists, whose names are David, I personally like them both, but like David Cook better.

David Cook has more of a rocker style, while the other David is just like a boyband. They have very different styles, and both have very nice voice. But maybe more people think just like me, that David Cook is better.

David Cook’s story amazes me. He was a bartender, and he didn’t even in the American Idol contest in the first place! He was accompanying his brother when suddenly someone (I don’t know who, was it Ryan Sacrest?) asked him to enter the contest. The rest is history, his brother didn’t make it to the next round, and David Cook become the American Idol.

Can you believe that? Someone who never dreamed of, and didn’t even want to try it, become the American Idol, the title thousands of Americans dream of. His story really is amazing.

Alexa rank goes back to normal again today. All of you whose blogs had “no rank” yesterday will have their ranks back on

My blog, which rank went up yesterday (284.588), go down back to its “original” rank (314.520). But strangely, the alexa widget on my blog still shows 284.588, while on Alexa toolbar and Alexa website it’s 314.520. How can the widget shows the wrong rank?

I don’t know what happened, maybe only the people in the Alexa team who know what happened. But I guess what happened yesterday was just an error in Alexa, and they realized it quickly. Hope the widget error will be fixed soon too..

What’s wrong with Alexa? Yesterday this blog’s Alexa Rank was 1.082.292, but now it has “no rank”! But my other blog’s Alexa Rank goes up to 284.588 from 314.520, now that’s normal, right?

I also have 2 other blogs which rank were 1.253.379 and 2.991.876, and now have no rank. I wonder what’s going on, after Alexa changed its ranking algorithm last month, is it going to be changed again?

Yesterday I got an email from Entrecard (well I think every Entrecard member will get the same email ), which told me about Entrecard’s new features. A few moment before I got the email, I couldn’t login to my Entrecard, the site says that it’s under maintenance.

It turns out the people behind Entrecard made an update, an essential one! Yes, now you can have a lot of blogs in one Entrecard account. Before this, if you have two blogs and you want to put an Entrecard on each, you must open 2 accounts, which means 2 email address. What if you have a lot of blogs? Really unpractical, right? The people on Entrecard realized this issue, and worked hard to overcome this.

If you already have more than one Entrecard account, don’t worry, you can link them so you can manage them without having to logout and login again. For details, read the email or the Entrecard blog. Oh, they have also released an ebook about the basics of Entrecard, how they work, and how to use it and take benefit from it for your blogs.

Ah.. this is just great!
